monsterrobotparty f2477513c0 🌙 retinue: worlds become places — moons, rings, tilts, spin, sun-lit terminator (opus)
Stage 3. moons.js: 21 moons as lit spheres with local per-parent compression
(clear the exaggerated parent, ordering preserved), retrograde via negative
period. rings.js: Saturn textured annulus (true 74500–140220 km scaled with
parent) + Uranus thin schematic ring, tilted with axial tilt, DoubleSide. Moons
draw at the parent's exaggeration so Io/Jupiter ≈ 0.026 ratio holds. Label
visibility gated via CSS2DObject.visible (CSS2DRenderer clobbers div.style.display
every frame — fixed). Gate: Galilean laps 1.00:0.50:0.25 (1:2:4), Triton
retrograde (Δθ<0), moons ordered io<europa<ganymede<callisto.

SOLARGOD ▸ Solar System View

A browser-based compressed-scale 3D solar system explorer — real ephemerides, scrubbable time across centuries, jump-to-orbit navigation, and live layers for deep-space probes, asteroids, and comets. Sibling of GODSIGH, which watches Earth; SOLARGOD watches everything else. Everything runs client-side from free, public, keyless data.

Status: pre-build. The full spec lives in SOLARGOD_BRIEF.md.

Planned layers

Layer Source Notes
Planets JPL Keplerian elements (Standish) computed locally, no network — scrub 18002050
Moons & rings JPL SSD satellite elements 21 major moons, Saturn/Uranus rings
Spacecraft JPL Horizons Voyagers, New Horizons, JWST, Parker — where they are now
Asteroids JPL SBDB real main-belt sample + NEO close approaches (CNEOS CAD)
Comets JPL SBDB Halley & friends, full orbits, 1/r² tails

MEGA mode compresses distances so the whole system is one readable view; TRUE mode animates it back out to its real, humbling emptiness.
